    How do I know if I got a refurbished Mavic?

    Yeah, I am curious about the same... bought a new unit direct from DJI in Feb and have been in support hell ever since as a result of it being defective out of the box... Just got a unit back today (April date) that also has a few scuffs - came wrapped in bubble wrap, no box... Pretty shoddy if...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Yeah, man... It's so frustrating to be on the receiving end of this, and with no lube to be found anywhere... I think that their public friendliness makes it a more difficult pill to swallow as well - you can only be told so many hundreds of times, by dozens of different reps, that they're...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Honest question here... Does anyone actually ever get SUPPORT from DJI Support or is it just the perpetual run around until we get tired and let them just keep our money... I'm so freaking sick of dealing with DJI.. They've sucked the love out of this hobby for me - I'm about ready to set my...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Ugh.. Yeah, that sucks... Before the Mavic, I was the happy owner of a P3P - which I still own and enjoy flying... I only got the Mavic because much like the P4, the P3 can be a bit of a beast to travel with - so I wanted something I could easily toss in my carryon or whatnot... Or so that was...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Yeah, I am really hoping that they do me right - though I am certainly not holding my breath, as I require air to live... Since sharing out on Youtube and Twitter, DJI has been in regular contact with me across various platforms (DMs on Twitter, comments on Youtube, following up on my open...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Okay.. So I'm kinda nervous here... Not sure if I can trust them - not sure what the outcome will REALLY be... Fortunately, the last time I experienced the issue, I was livestreaming on FB, which captured it (and my tirade about DJI's support and how I was recommending people not give them any...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    This is exactly what I want to know. I've been discussing this very issue on the DJI Forum and the consensus there was hardware issue, so I sent it in for repair (they replaced gimbal/camera assembly)... Now that it's still happening on my 'repaired' unit and now that I am finding so many others...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Haha.. Sorry about inducing the anxiety... And I wish that I could reassure you that everything will be 100% fine, but... who can really say on these things (that's the best that I can do to reassure :) ). I've owned a Parrot and Phantom 3 Pro - never had a single problem out of them that I...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    Ah, man - I'm happy to have found this thread, though admittedly I wish it also contained a solid solution for this issue :) DJI is worthless if you come to them with this one (or really anything based on my experiences with support)... I experienced what appears to be Gimbal Calibration...
